From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Freddie Scott is a solo artist who began his career as a writer for Columbia Records with Carole King and Gerry Goffin.
Scott recorded the chart-topping hit "Hey, Girl" and went on to chart a string of other Billboard Hot 100 singles between 1963 and 1971. His 1968 "You Got What I Need" was famously sampled for the 1989 Biz Markie smash hit, "Just a Friend (song)".
He later hit the oldies circuit and then released two new albums in the 1990s, one in 2001, and one in 2004 which includes some backing vocals by Greg Bravo (Gary Scott). He also was a contributor to Van Morrison's "Vanthology" album released in 2003.
